From Auociitrd Press reports
El Salvador
bill killed
WASHINGTON — Pres. Ronald
Reagan, ignoring appeals from the
State Department, on Wednesday
killed legislation that would have
tied continued military aid for El
Salvador to its progress on human
rights and land reform.
Reagan doomed the bill through
a "pocket veto" — allowing a mid
night deadline for his signature to
lapse.
Even so, White House
spokesman Larry Speakes said the
administation was "firmly com
mitted to the protection of human
rights, economic and political
reforms, the holding of elections
and progress in prosecuting the
cases of murdered American
citizens in El Salvador."
Speakes said that even without
the law, the administration would
provide periodic reports to Con
gress on the "political, economic
and military situation in El
Salvador." But he did not say that
such reports would specifically in
corporate the human rights issue.
Earlier, officials who spoke on
condition they not be identified
said Reagan's objections stemmed
from his opposition to congres
sional constraints on his authority
to conduct foreign policy and
from concern that the legislation
would undercut the U.S. commit
ment to help El Salvador in its
fight against leftist guerrillas.
Rights panel
bill revived
WASHINGTON — Pres. Roanld
Reagan revived the U.S. Commis
sion on Civil Rights on Wednes
day after waiting until virtually the
last moment to sign legislation
rc*ducing his power to influence
the panel.
Technically, the commission
died at midnight Tuesday. The bill
signed by Reagan revives it, but
with greater congressional — and
less presidential — control over its
makeup.
Reagan, frustrated by the
Senate's refusal to confirm his
choices for commission member
ship, precipitated a crisis by firing
three Democratic members of fhe
six-member panel last month.
That left the panel without a
quorum and legally powerless to
meet, and it infuriated members
of the House and Senate alike
who accused Reagan of trying to
thwart the will of Congress.
To head off a move that would
have established the commission
as an arm of the Congress, Reagan
agreed to a compromise that ex
pands the commission member
ship to eight members, who will
serve staggered, six-year terms.
But the president, who previously
had named all six members of the
panel, then would be able to ap
point only four. The speaker of
the House and majority leader of
the Senate each will name two.
Reagan also was forced to sur
render his authority to fire any
commissioners, except for
malfeasance or neglect of duty.
And, further diluting the presi
dent's influence over panel ac
tivities, Reagan will have to let the
commission select its own chair
man and vice chairman, whereas
previous presidents designated
the panel's leadership.
Eugene man
shoots self
EUGENE — A Eugene man shot
himself to death Wednesday as
police kicked open his door to ar
rest him on a charge of stealing a
6-pack of beer Tuesday, police
here say.
Officer April Norman of the
Eugene Police Department said
Halwin Hickman, 21, died of a
single self-inflicted gunshot
wound to the head.
Robbery homicide detectives
went to Hickman's apartment to
arrest him for first-degree robbery
for stealing the beer at gunpoint
from Sunny's Market Basket in
Eugene, Norman said.
She said the suspect went into
the store twice. The second time
he stole a 6-pack of beer and pull
ed out a revolver when the store
clerk confronted him, the officer
said.
Murderer
executed
STARKE, Fla. — Robert Sullivan,
36, a convicted murderer who
spent 10 years on death row, was
executed in Florida's electric chair
Wednesday alter reciting a psalm
in tears and thanking Pope John
Paul II for trying to save his life.
A black hood was placed over
his head and the executioner, also
wearing a black hood, threw a
switch sending 2,000 volts of elec
tricity through Sullivan's body for
two minutes.
wuxaaeea

-
Sullivan was pronounced dead
at 10:16 a.m., six minutes after
Gov. Bob Graham gave the go
ahead for the execution, ending a
week of frantic legal maneuvering
that reached to the U.S. Supreme
Court and won the condemned
man a brief stay.
Florida thus became the first
state to have executed two people
since the Supreme Court
reinstated the death penalty seven
years ago. Eight other Americans,
all men, have been executed since
the landmark decision.
"I hold malice to none. May
God bless us all," were his last
words.
Sullivan was sentenced to death
for the April 9, 1973 robbery and
murder of Donald Schmidt, an
assistant manager at a Howard
Johnson's restaurant in
Homestead, south of Miami.
Schmidt's credit cards and
watch were found on Sullivan
when he was arrested.
Late Monday, a federal appeals
court and later the Supreme
Court, refused to spare Sullivan's
life. A final appeal to the Florida
Supreme Court and the federal
appeals court, claiming electrocu
tion constituted cruel and unusual
punishment, was rejected in the
morning.
Stopovers in
the manly ports
NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — Navy
Cmdr. Gerald Vanderwier was
convicted Wednesday of three
counts of sodomy with one of the
crewmen aboard a ship he com
manded during a Mediterranean
cruise in March.
Vanderwier, who did not testify
during the three-day court
martial, showed no reaction as
military judge Capt. Maitland
Freed announced his verdict after
deliberating about 15 minutes.
After court recessed, Vander
wier, 42, a 19-year member of the
service who has four children,
hugged and kissed his wife,
Patricia.
Both declined to speak to
reporters.
Freed set sentencing for Thurs
day morning. Vanderwier could
be dismissed from the Navy, lose
pay and benefits and be sentenc
ed to 15 years in prison.
Fie was convicted of having oral
sex with former Petty Officer 3rd
Class John Rainville, who was a
hospital corpsman aboard the
Mayport, Fla.-based frigate
McDonnell while Vanderwier was
in command.
